[@travismoon5290]

I have never owned a car with a correct fuel Guage.. Even my new cars.

[@garrettkogelschatz9705]

My car right now doesn't have a working fuel gauge but I have an app with a piece I plugged into the ecu

[@travismoon5290]

I have a carburetor, no computers, just regular old maths to keep it from running dry.

[@juliemittel3931]

Fun fact: there is a thing called octane booster. It's a small bottle that just contains something to boost your octane. (i don't know what it is, but chrisfix made a video about that) so if you fill your car with the wrong fuel you can just empty the bottle in there and you can go. You can usually get it at a gas station but if the one you're at doesn't have that then just take it easy and don't full throttle on the way to the next gas station. _this has saved my life a couple of times!_

[@juliemittel3931]

@SquashBluesky Xbox PC yeah, most cars have something either on the fuel gauge or on the gas cap that say somthing like 'high octane vehicle'

[@AdammP]

"as the clutch plate slips on the gearbox shaft". .. The clutch plate is connected to the gearbox shaft via means of splines in the middle of the disk. So, the clutch plate won't slip on the gearbox shaft but the flywheel

[@stephenpowstinger733]

1. I recently had an argument with guys here saying you don't need to warm up your engine so I'm glad you said this. 2. People with sports cars or low-profile tires are especially at risk for potholes and speedbumps. you can even damage the rims.

[@ukkomies100]

When i get tailgated, i use the rear foglights to give the dude behind me a good scare.

[@theothersilas]

ukkomies100 I have to give that a try in my car idk if I have rear fog lights I usually just let off that gas ( NO BREAK CHECK) and let it Coast until the person behind me gets off my ass break checking is dangerous ASF

[@BGSlimBG]

I never thought of that. I will try it for sure!

[@ashark9898]

@Alex Ptc mine doesnt have one :)

[@Skeppyberry]

don't freak out about resting on the shifter. This only applies to cars with physical shifters that are directly tied to the gearbox. If you have a 2017 Audi or newer you are fine. Also with a Prius and some Volvos. Just make sure your shifter returns to the rest position when in gear. If it stays where you leave it then it can cause harm.

[@rodneyjones8433]

One important thing they failed to mention is GAS, Yes gas acts as a lubricant for your fuel pump and running it low will ruin the fuel, but putting too much gas, like when you're filling up and the pump, DON'T trying to put that extra 35 to 50 cents (Overfilling) will also ruin your fuel evap system and could cost you like a thousand bucks. When the gas pump stops, you need to stop also. Once you get raw fuel into the charcoal container that's only suppose to see vapors, It's not a cheap fix.

[@theroyalcrownedtiger2946]

I use high performance synthetic brake fluid, and high performance brake parts, that's slotted and cross drilled, it works wonderful, I am not worried about brake fade, heat, etc. Also I am using high performance tires too.

[@BGSlimBG]

Keeping the clutch halfway pressed in the traffic is not considered as riding. The friction material on the clutch plates starts burning out on high degrees - about 200 celsius and that can occur on high revs and partially pressed clutch(hence more friction).

[@aestheticcruise8807]

Here is another winter startup tip. Before you start the engine, turn the key to power only the electronics and make sure all accessories like the radio and defrosters are off. Doing that will allow the battery to achieve a full circuit and allow the temperature senosors to analyze the weather conditions and the fuel pump to pressure up the system (faint buzzing noise) Let the fuel pump prime the cylinders til it shuts off. Having a full circuit before you start the engine will reduce strain on the battery and your starter and help those critical components last longer. As for a cold start, it won’t harm the engine once it starts and if it sounds like it will stall, giving a slight “blip” of the throttle (only once) will make sure there is enough fuel going into the cylinders

[@JamesSmith-lt5zz]

If you use low octane fuel in a high octane vehicle the knock sensor retards timing. Small decrease in power. But it won't hurt the engine. The computer knows. Jus like using high octane in regualt vehicle you will get better gas mileage as long as your computer has at least obd1 more with obd2 and 3. It will adjust the air fuel ratio and timing . It burns slower and more complete burning. High octane fuels from top tier stations have more cleaning agents. Top tier has more anyway but the high grade will have more.

[@miendust]

you missed one point... it's not just seconds after starting the engine... wait until the engine has heated up and the fluids and other components are at the ideal temperature. Water and Oil should be at least 80° C!!! Otherwise, the oil can't keep up with the fast movement of the pistons, so there will be no lubricant and as a result breaking your engine and leading to total engine damage.

[@robcoa]

Miendust yessir

[@jadenp4477]

It adds extra wear to the engine

[@zhila5958]

i don’t drive a car that advanced to tell me the oil temperature. but i won’t rev the engine till the rpm speedometer drops to less that 1 rpm

[@wo1fman570]

No one cares I have Toyoda

[@zhila5958]

WO1FMAN well even if you have the most immortal car you should still take care of it.

[@alanhindmarch4483]

Riding the clutch is when you rest your foot on the clutch pedal, instead of moving your foot away. Using the clutch to adjust your speed is called slipping the clutch or coasting.

[@Skeppyberry]

when you start your car the idle will be high wait till it is fully down to normal before coming out of park

[@daimientaylor3108]

1500 to 2000 RPM is NOT high rpm, that's really not even moderate and is done to get the Oil Pump to move quicker to circulate the oil throughout the engine. Yes you can do damage not having your car idle enough on a cold start just as idling too fast.

[@hf3593]

ldling is bad for the engine, and wastes gas. Just drive while keeping the rpms low till the engine warms up. Plus, engines warm up faster when driven.

[@JamesSmith-lt5zz]

@@hf3593 this is why city stop and go is bad and damaging. Just like idking the oil pressure is at it's lowest at idle. Not to mention strain on cooling system in stop and go and gridlock. Coolant is hotter and stays hotter from the entire and transmission lines running to it. With only the fan drawing air in. One thing I like about my f250 they don't do well with electric fans man have tried the clutch fan is where it's at.

[@moileung]

Wow those are gorgeous red brake calipers

[@Prestiged_peck]

Rotaries need to be revved to the moon when first started because they pump in more oil at high rpms and oil through the intake, where other engines pump it, and have trouble pumping it at startup due to how thick cold oil is, but rotaries again pump more oil at higher rpms. It also helps re seat the piston seals allowing the engine to run more efficiently faster

[@Sunofmungo]

High octane fuel in a low require octane vehicle does absolutely nothing but empty your pockets. Low octane fuel in a high octane vehicle lowers power and causes earlier wear and tear to the engine. Sports/SUV's care with no low octane tuning can damage engines, such as valves, valve seats, overall engine detonation, etc

[@tistrylongman4070]

When you are in dense traffic and it's moving very slowly, it's impossible not to ride the clutch at all. Any comments?

[@elleelle9037]

How do you know the octane gas to buy. The only thing on my car manual is to use petrol

[@ned1182]

Ok first of all it’s riding your brake not keeping you foot on the break. Secondly drives don’t push the pedal that put there toe on the break pedal so if anything is on the road they can stop it’s called Safety.

[@Jorigin]

Ok so if you're not meant to ride your brakes down hills what are you supposed to do? Just go down full speed and not brake at all?

[@diwa393]

Engine brake and to do that more effective shit to lower gear or do sharp and short brakings with brakes. And if you drive something with jake brake use that

[@scottgulberg3740]

Everyone should watch this before getting there driver’s liscense.

[@imtooslow6292]

im making my in 6 days lol

[@-SirDuke-]

Everybody comment about "dangerous brakes" didn´t listen carefully. There is a difference about "using the brakes" and "riding the brakes". And he´s absolutely right about the term "riding the brakes" But I just disagree with two other things: 1.) Nearly all modern cars (build since about 2000) have a "knock sensor". So it´s quite pretty harmless, which octane you use. 2.) "Resting" the hand on the stickshift / gearshift is quite harmless too, as long as you don´t use any kind of force. Just don´t move your hand around.

[@Doitfor_E]

After this I don’t want to drive my car anymore where’s my bicycle

[@mergimaliu7464]

Clutch riding how r u suposed to not ride it u expert if the traffic is super slow u are genius

[@splitsecondmagician]

With pickups, that 80 psi for the rear tires is only recommended if you have a load on the vehicle. Otherwise you'll just be over inflated and burn out your center tread. Without a load on matching front and rear tire pressures is a better idea.

I hit my shifter into Neutral once and didn't even realize it so i do think its possible to accidentally shift an automatic car causing problems

[@alexdronesandvlogs167]

So when I’m going down hill I should keep smasher the gas pedal?

[@JackRusselMan]

I've had several cars and 2 new cars the only cars I ever had a gas gauge problem was my buicks. I have run my new suv down to 35 miles to E just because I wasn't able to stop and get fuel sooner and my last car I drove it down to 1 gallon once while I owned it

[@RangerxTurbo]

Idk about that gas tank one. My 07 avalon before said 10 miles left and i got over 60 out of it and it was a quarter way under the e. No problems with the car for the gas either

[@YoloXGTfuntimelover]

My mother left the emergency break on and she drove 1 hour on the highway and we smelled something burning and when we pulled over, the drum brakes were glowing red. It was a purple camry 2000

[@sassythesasquatch6336]

Yolo X GT ツ did she leave the hand brake on?

[@YoloXGTfuntimelover]

Yeah, luckey somone honked at her and told her to pull over

[@Ketoza__Paul_Diddlez]

Sorry id disagree with the brakes. Yes braking down hill may cause warp on the rotors, but i dont agree with the amount of heat being used on the brakes. Thats why air is used which is to allow the cooling to flow within the brakes. Brake fluid is pressurised though to the brakes when brakes are pressed. Somewhat disagree

[@j.l.wickham2531]

My '92 Celica has a Jake Brake. No need to ride the brakes.

[@robertwadas]

Hospitals run on Generators, 12-16 cyyls. They have 1 speed...full when started. They dont shortened the life

[@thenewhalogod]

They also have heaters to keep the oil temp high even when off. Also, they don't run daily, and receive more maintenance than cars normally get.

[@robertwadas]

@@thenewhalogod No oil heaters in the generators. They do run daily. The 6 at our local hospital run onece a day. All 6 must be capable of being run at all times. As soon as one doesn't start on its daily run, we get an alarm and send a technician over ASAP------ My house generator runs once a week for 1 hr. I have had it 10 years. worked 100% of time city power went down.

[@WildBill-kf2pc]

I just bought new tires. In order to get inch walls for my 55 Chevy Bel Air Hard Top. The best looking tires are called California Classics. Question is on the tire the cold pressure reads 80 psi. Witch seems a little hard to me. What do you suggest ? Thanks

[@enemys007]

Typically you should go of the door jam placard on a vehicle. But lacking that typically passenger cars run between 35 and 44 psi with thinner sidewalls requiring the higher pressures. I'd start at 35 and see how my tires rolled over

[@davenone7312]

Very few cars require high octane! If your car requires it you will know it from the day you bought that high performance car. Tailgating is an easy one...Just Get out of the way! Especially you left lane HOGS!! Speed bumps can be much smoother when going at a slightly faster speed. Maintenance is #1. Especially Oil changes!!

[@rayopeongo]

Never mind riding the brakes when going downhill, what about the guys who ride the brakes all the time - right foot on the gas and left foot on the brake pedal all day long? The brakes are always hot and therefore less effective, they wear out faster and cost you more money to replace, and you may as well not have any brake lights at all. If the brake lights are on constantly, they are no longer useful for warning the drivers behind you that you are now using enough pressure on the brake pedal to actually slow the car down.

[@deepakk1347]

You should have said that the fuel (petrol/diesel) lubricate the fuel pump

[@jonathangonzalez6972]

To all my camaro drivers, is the most expensive gas better for the engine or do they not need it?

[@baka0319]

Well it depends, if you have a 6 cylinder Camaro, Chevy recommends 87 octane gas but with the V8s, You have to have 91 or higher octane because of the increased compression ratio of the V8 compared to the V6. So basically, read your manual for what your manufacturer recommends to be put in your engine. But if you modify your car, follow what your tuner says in order to get consistent performance.

[@blowndome]

Read the manual. Or the gas door usually tells you what's recommended.
